Justin Ruan raised an eyebrow when he heard his phone ringing.
Instead of taking out his phone right away, he watched Evan Lin with amused interest.
“Tsk tsk, I didn’t expect this—you actually managed to find someone to plead for you?”
Justin let his phone ring and looked at Evan Lin with even more contempt: “I want to see which connection a nobody like you could possibly use to beg for mercy.”
“You’d better pray the person you found is someone I’ll give the tiniest bit of face, or else I’ll make sure you’re all finished.”
Justin sneered as he reached into his pocket for his phone.
“Young Master Justin is so mighty!”
“Young Master Justin is so domineering!”
On the side, Zane Liu and Manager Leo Li could barely wait to see Justin Ruan crush this kid in front of them.
“Just wait for your doom!”
The shift in his attitude was unbelievably fast.
It happened so quickly that Maggie Sun, standing there, felt it was almost unreal.
"Yes... yes..."
"Okay..."
"I... I..."
Listening to the voice on the other end, Justin Ruan’s teeth were chattering, and he could only mumble responses, unable to say a complete sentence.
He turned his head and stared blankly at Evan Lin, who was sitting not far away.
This time.
His eyes were filled with endless fear and anxiety.
"Young Master Justin?" Manager Leo Li called out.
"What's wrong?" Zane Liu quickly asked.
They weren’t far from Justin Ruan, but still couldn’t make out what the person on the phone was saying.
All they could hear was the caller’s voice, calm and steady, not at all like someone begging for mercy.
But the actual words were impossible to make out.
They couldn’t hear the conversation.
And they had no idea who Justin Ruan was talking to.
But what kind of big shot could this kid possibly call?
That’s simply impossible!
None of them were worried at all.
But Justin Ruan’s attitude suddenly made them uneasy.
"I… I understand."
Justin Ruan hung up the phone, looking as if he’d lost his soul.
"Young Master Justin?" Manager Leo Li called again.
This time, worried his voice was too soft, Manager Leo Li leaned forward.
Then...
Justin Ruan slapped Manager Leo Li away.
"Get out!"
Justin Ruan glared and shouted angrily.
Manager Leo Li was stunned, his face pale and mind numb. "Young Master Justin… what’s wrong?"
His voice was tinged with fear.
He couldn’t understand why Justin Ruan changed so much after just one phone call.
"Finished with your call?" Evan Lin asked, his tone indifferent.
Evan Lin watched him, his tone indifferent.
"It’s finished."
Justin Ruan took a deep breath, stood up from his seat, and nodded.
"Do you know what you need to do now?"
Evan Lin wasn’t in a hurry, his tone relaxed.
Zane Liu and Manager Leo Li suddenly realized the atmosphere had become very strange.
In their eyes, the once arrogant Justin Ruan now had not a trace of arrogance left on his face.
Meanwhile, the kid who should have been begging for mercy was still as calm as ever.
It was as if—
He didn’t feel the slightest bit of pressure.
Could it be that the person who called had an unbelievably powerful background?
But that shouldn’t be possible!
This kid came from a small place—how could he possibly know any big shots?
Thud.
Zane Liu and Manager Leo Li still hadn’t figured it out.
They saw Justin Ruan stand up, then decisively kneel before Evan Lin.
He knelt purely.
Without a hint of hesitation.
"Justin… Justin…"
Manager Leo Li was so frightened his face turned pale and his skin trembled.
He knew Justin Ruan’s character well.
For someone like him, who had powerful connections, there were very few people who could make him kneel so easily.
"Master Ju told me to kowtow ten times for you."
Justin Ruan’s voice trembled with fear, and after he spoke, he ignored everyone else and immediately began kowtowing.
Bang, bang, bang…
Ten kowtows in a row.
Each one was solid and sincere.
The whole private room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Only the sound of kowtowing echoed, striking at everyone’s hearts.
